Obesity, knee osteoarthritis and knee arthroplasty: a review

Saif Salih, Paul Sutton, Saif Salih, Paul Sutton

Abstract

The incidence of obesity is rising worldwide. Obesity is a risk factor for developing osteoarthritis in the knee. Obesity and knee osteoarthritis are independently disabling conditions and in combination pose difficult therapeutic challenges. This review will discuss obesity, osteoarthritis, and the problems associated with knee osteoarthritis in an obese population. Treatment options including surgery and its success will be discussed.
